Twilight Eclipse

Twilight EclipseThe film, Twilight Eclipse is absolutely my favorite of the series so far!

I was lucky enough to get tickets on June 30th and went with my youngest son and my oldest son’s girlfriend. The theater was XD which must be like an Imax screen or something because the faces were huge. It felt like the actors were falling off the screen into our laps (which is not a criticism :))

The following Sunday, I saw Eclipse again with two of my sons and a girlfriend with her two sons,  and was really able to take it all in. My first impression had been that the film didn’t stick to the book because things were definitely happening out of order.

But really, I was only aware of that fact because I’d just finished reading Eclipse again before seeing the movie. So the second time around, it was easier to see how smooth the screenplay was at weaving the whole story into 2 hours. (more…)

Twilight Addiction

Okay, I admit it. Much to the embarrassment of most of my family, I am a Twilight Junkie.

I’ve read all four of Stephanie Meyer’s Twilight saga books, twice. Not to mention the internet only manuscript of Midnight Sun. I check out the latest gossip on the New Moon filming and look forward with great anticipation to 11.20.09 for the opening of Twilight #2. My desktop image is the New Moon poster released by Summit last week.

I’ve had in depth conversations with my 12 year old niece as well as several teenage fans of the series and I just can’t shake it. I know that I’ll eventually get over it, but until then, I plan to enjoy!
